  1. Hi,

    I wonder how many fruitlegs are available at this point?

    I got some 36 so far, I guess. From Apple, Apricot, Banana, etc all the way to through White Sapote (Cranberry is still missing in my collection, though).
    I wonder if there are more than those 36? (Melon not included of course, since it was the album that instigated this entire fruitlegging - which is a pretty cool thing, btw).

    I appreciate most of those fruitlegs, although remixes usually are not an improvement of the original. But they're very nice addittions to the collection.


    Thanks in advance!

  2. I think that's all.... although over the years new fruitlegs will be added. Are these a real must-have? I don't own any of them, I only downloaded a few because I wanted some specific tracks.
  3. A real must-have? Good question.... No, I think not, but I like to keep my collection as complete up-to-date as possible (I still got a looooong way to go, BTW...).
    And I think it's fun to keep looking for those rare tracks/albums/items. That's part of the sport for me.

    if you're keen on 3rd party remixes and bad quality rips of official material then you'll love them...
    Otherwise, you don't miss anything. Same trash as the "Bono Solo" samplers or the "Acoustic collection".
  7. Some ofthe fruitlegs should be interessing to be heard.
  8. I downloaded everything from spiral... and except for a few songs I never listen to them.

  9. I'd say that the one that's essential is Orange. I'd never have got the brilliant Perfecto Mix of Numb so cheaply any other way when I bought it twelve years ago. And there are some other good third party extended edits on there, too. The sound quality on my copy of Banana is rubbish - anyone else got a view on that?
  10. Just got myself 'Cherry' and it's pretty cool actually
    A must-have, no, but certainly nice Especially when you like some dance/trance-stuff
  11. I've got quite a few and I've gotta say that they are hit and miss, mostly miss.

    Only a few hidden gems such as the Craig Armstrong remix of Stay.

    exactly. I downloaded them a long time ago, picked my favorites (which was only about 14 out of the lot) and put those into a playlist, got rid of everything else.
